Operation Sindoor Boycott Effect: Turkey Takes The Brunt, Indian Tourists Down 24% This May N18G

Indian tourists going to Turkey saw a sharp 24 per cent drop in May as compared to the same month last year – a month when tourism to the country is at its peak.Against 41,554 tourists from India, who went to Turkey last year, the number is down to 31,659 this May, official Turkey tourism figures show. This comes in the backdrop of Turkey’s role in aiding Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, which came to light on May 9 when India revealed that Turkish-made drones were used by its neighbouring country for an attack.The debris recovered by India showed that these were SONGAR ASISGUARD drones of Turkey. This is the first national armed drone that has been used by the Turkish armed forces.It prompted boycott calls for Turkey in India and travel portals like MakeMyTrip, EaseMyTrip and Cleartrip said they will not promote Turkey tourist packages. The impact of the same is slowly but surely showing as only 31,659 Indian tourists visited Turkey this May as compared to 41,554 in May last year. n18oc_world News18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
